I really expected to like the game, but The Outer Worlds just isn't really doing it for me. I keep playing hoping it will hook me but hasn't really happened yet
I find myself comparing it to Fallout 4, which had some really great and memorable side quests that I really enjoyed completing. All the side quests in TOW just come across as short, straightforward, and not memorable.
I'm tired of killing the same 4 beasts over and over again, who all seem to have the same "level", if that makes sense. In Fallout, Super Mutants and other enemies "ranked up" along the way as you ranked up. I may be wrong, but that doesn't seem to be the case in TOW.
The colors/graphics are a bit too Borderlands-y for me. Monarch's graphics/colors in particular really annoy me
